Israeli Surgeons Re-attach Boy’s Head After Decapitation In Accident

Surgeons in Israel have re-attached the decapitated head of Suleiman Hassan, a 12-year-old boy from Palestine.

The boy was hit by a car while riding his bicycle.

According to multiple sources, he was thereafter airlifted to Hadassah Medical Center in Jerusalem where it was determined that the ligaments holding the posterior base of his skull were severely damaged.

This left his skull detached from the top vertebrae of his spine but with his skin intact. This is commonly known as internal or orthopedic decapitation.

Ohad Einav, the orthopedic specialist who operated on the patient alongside Ziv Asa, said the procedure, which took place in June, was very complicated and took several hours.

He added that the surgeons used new fixations in the damaged area and fought to save the boy’s life.
